Let’s Get Weird: August 11

This is a recurring TFM series. Catch up with all installments of Let's Get Weird by visiting the archive.

It’s Friday, tailgating season is just a couple weeks away, and alcohol is readily available in the United States of America, so let’s get weird.

Where do you come out on this Ezekiel Elliot suspension? Six games for domestic abuse based on evidence that law enforcement deemed insufficient, yet was clearly enough for the NFL to come down HARD on. Seems excessive, but I’m thinking they found some pretty damning evidence in those text messages and in talking to the alleged victim. That’s a statement suspension. Fuck.

Anna Kendrick-sneaky hot and reasonably funny on Twitter-underrated.
Grapefruit juice-shouldn’t exist unless you’re eating a grapefruit-overrated.
SUVs-good for big groups/lots of beer but driven by too many people who use it for neither-overrated.
Undercuts-belong on Euro soccer stars and actors in Peaky Blinders-overrated.
Cufflinks-excellent for formal occasions to show you know what you’re doing-properly rated.

With the premier league coming back today, this is a PSA for you to get into soccer. Excellent excuse to start drinking at 8am on a Saturday/Sunday, and a great way to get ready for your college/NFL game later i the afternoon.
